Africa And the U.N.I.A. Call Upon Negroes to Be Men-To Develop Courage, Faith, Will, Vision, Character, Manhood
FELLOW MEN OF THE NEGRO RACE, Greeting:
I have chosen to write to you today on the subject "Man," because I believe it necessary to bring home to the four hundred million members of our race the truer consciousness of self which cannot be truly appreciated except by a thorough knowledge of the individual whom God has created in his own image. When I say Man I do not mean the animal who moves along dressed up in the latest style or fashion, but I mean the individual whose character, whose consciousness of self is of such as to make him truly a Lord of Creation.
In the 1,500,000,000 human souls in the world I hardly believe that we can find 5,000 real men; that is to say, the individuals who know themselves, feel the truer consciousness of self, knowing their possibilities and their limitations.
It is not everybody who moves around that is a real man. Man is the individual who is able to shape his own character, master his own life, and shape his own destiny. When God breathed into the nostrils of man the breath of life, made him a living soul and bestowed upon him the authority of Lord of Creation, He never intended that that individual should descend to the level of a peon, a serf, or a slave; but that he would be always man in the fullest possession of his senses and with the truest knowledge of himself. But how changed has man been since the creation! We find him today divided into different classes, the helpless, imbecile class, the dependent, sycophantic class, the slave class and the master class. These different classes God never created. He created Man, but this individual has retrograded so as to make it impossible for us to find him. It is so difficult to find a real man. As far as our race goes I hardly believe that we can find one hundred real men who are able to measure up to the higher purpose of the creation. It is because of this lack of real manhood in us as a race why we have stagnated for several centuries, and now find ourselves at the foot of the great human ladder.
The cry of the Universal Negro Improvement Association is for real men, men of character, men of courage, men of confidence, men of faith, men who believe that all creation is but the domain of man, and that above men there is no authority but God. When the Creator created His masterpiece Man and placed him in the world as lord of His creation it was meant that man should establish sovereignty over the world, that he should subdue all things and use them to his own satisfaction and shape them to his own will. God never intended that man should expect Him to do for him that which he should do for himself. After the creation, and after man was given possession of the world, the Creator relinquished all authority to His lord but which was spiritual. All that authority that meant the regulation of human affairs, human society, and human happiness was arrogated to man by the Creator, and man therefore became master of his own destiny, architect of his own fate. In process of time we find that only a certain type of man has been able to make good in God's creation. We find them building nations, governments and empires, as also great monuments of commerce, industry and education. These men, realizing the power given to them, exerted every bit of it to their own good and to their posterity's. While on the other hand, four hundred millions of us who claim the common Fatherhood of God and the Brotherhood of Man have fallen back so completely as to make us today the serfs and slaves of those who full know themselves, and have taken control of the world as given to us all by the Creator.
What the Universal Negro Improvement Association desires to do is to impress upon the four hundred million members of our race that our failings in the past, as well as the present and the future, will

be through our failure to know ourselves and to realize the true functions of man on this mundane sphere.
For man to know him is for him to feel that there is no human master for him. Nature is his servant, and that whatsoever he wills in nature that shall be his reward. If he wills to be piggy, a serf, or a slave, that shall be he. If he wills to be a real man, in possession of the things common to man, then he shall be his own sovereign. When man fails to grasp his authority, then he sinks to the level of the lower animals, and whatsoever the real man bids him do, even as if it were of the lower animals, that much shall he do. That is to say, there are some of us men (I mean as far as the human form is concerned) who are in our relationship to others, not better than the lower animals, because to us if the real man says go, we go; if he says come, we come. By his command we perform the functions of life, even as by a similar command the mule, the horse, the cow, the dog perform the will of their masters.
The Negro has for the last five hundred years been in the position of being commanded even as the lower animals are controlled. Our task has been without a tilt, without a purpose of its own; for all this length of time, and because of that we have developed but few men who are able to understand the strenuousness of the age in which we live. I am sorry to admit it, but nevertheless it is true. I hardly believe that we can find ten real men in this race of ours. I repeat, men of character, men of purpose, men of confidence, men of faith, men who really know themselves. I have come across so many weaklings who profess to be leaders and in the test I have found them but slaves of a higher class who perform the will of their masters without question. To me a man has no master but God. Man in his authority is sovereign to God. As for the individual man, so of the individual race; the individual race has no master but God; all men are to them equal; there is no superior. This feeling makes man so courageous, so bold as to make it impossible for his brother to intrude upon his rights. How few of us can understand what it takes to make a man; the man who will never say die; the man who will never give up; the man who will never depend upon others to do for him what he ought to do for himself; the man who will not blame God, who will not blame Nature, who will not blame fate for his condition, but the man who will go out and make conditions to suit him. Oh, how disgusting life becomes when on every hand you hear people who bear your image, who bear your resemblance, telling you that they cannot make it, that fate is against them, and that they cannot get a chance! Ah! it is painful to contemplate, when the real man knows that God gave him all the chances necessary when He gave Creation, when He gave life. What more can we expect? Everything we see in nature has been given to us by God for our own pleasure, for our own use, for our own happiness, and yet man says he cannot make it. How cowardly, how incompetent, how thoughtless, how weak!
Must Know Themselves
And what is the difference between man—the one that towers as a giant above the other who, like a pigmy, wallows in the gutter? Because the giant man, after discovering himself, utilizes every ounce of his vitality and every particle of his entire being to reach out to the higher things that are within the reach of man. That is to say, he hangs his hopes, he pins his confidence as high as human limitations, that limitation that has been set only by God Himself; in the
exercise of his-will, that inner set character goes out to achieve, to conquer, to subdue all those things that are possible to man. The other fellow, characterless, because of himself, inconsistent, because of himself; hopeless, because of himself; determines that it cannot be done, therefore he will not try. No will, no mental force, no spiritual power, even though he was created with all these things, will he exert. If four-hundred million Negroes can only get to know themselves, to know that in them is a sovereign power, is an authority that is absolute, then in the next twenty-four hours we would have a new race, we would have a new nation, we would have a great empire resurrected not from the will of others to see us rise, but from our own determination to rise, irrespective of what the world thinks. Men and women of the Negro race, can you not get such a determination within you? Can you not realize that God Almighty created you to be real men, and not pigniles, not serfs, not underlings? Can you not realize God never created a superior man but you? Can you not realize you are the reflection of your own creator and that you were created in His image, and that when you accept of a superior being you admit that there is no superior God? If you bear the image of your Creator, then God is made manifest in you, and if you accept a superior being, you accept an insult to the God that is within you. God is only pleased with man when he measures up to the higher spirituality that is in him, which is no other than God Himself. When man reduces himself to become the slave and lackey of his fellow, he drags down the Spiritual Omnipotence of God in him.
Fundamental Social Laws!
If we could but understand ourselves the more as others seem to do, we would in a short time find ourselves living in a new world, surrounded with new conditions and enjoying new pleasures.
Let those of us who have the ambition for leadership first study to know how much confidence we have in ourselves, because there can be no leadership where there is no confidence.
Around me I see many petty men who think they know, who think they are great, when in truth they have not yet discovered themselves. I have seen them smart under the stare of the white man, I have seen them tremble under the verbal attack of the enemy. I have seen them almost trying to hide themselves in retreat, because of the physical charge of the oppressor, and yet these fellows call themselves leaders. Whither leadest thou? To me it is but to perdition, to another age of darkness, of slavery, of racial destruction. We, I say, want men of courage, men of character, men of conviction, who are not afraid to stand up at any time, even in the face of death, even confronting the lion in his den, there willing to suffer anything for the rights that are dear to this race of ours.
A Quirinot of Brains!
I hope the forthcoming convention will give us such men, men whom we can safely send out to the four corners of the world, and have them defend this race of ours; men whom we can count upon as being able to withstand the test of the leaders of the other races of the world.
Among the men in the world that I admire are such noble characters as David Lloyd George and Arthur J. Balfour of England, Clemenceau, Briand and Poincare of France; Ishi and Kato of Japan, Lenine and Trotsky of Russia; Ghandhi of India; Griffith, Collins and DeValera of Ireland; Hughes, Harding and Wilken of America. In vain do I look for such characters in the Negro race, and I have not been able to place them!
Let us now look forward to our Sixth International Convention with the hope of finding real men who are able to measure up to the expectations of the day.
You will help the Universal Negro Improvement Association to lift this race of ours by your moral and financial support to the cause. Now more than ever you should stick by this great organization and give us the necessary financial help to put over this big program. Now is the time to subscribe to the Convention Fund, so as to supply the organization with the necessary credit to in every detail carry out the great work that has been planned. The convention this year will call for the expenditure of large sums of money, in that many important delegations are to be sent abroad to interview the different Governments of Europe and the League of Nations in the interest of the race, as well as many statutory legislations are to be put into effect which will entail much expense.

The Savansah division held its
Regular Meeting Sunday, June 26, at
Baskerville Hall, Minus and West
Baskerville streets, with the president,
Rev G. C. Andrews, presiding.
The Opening Ode was sung, after which the Hiramalai Prayer was repeated in concert. The minutes of the last meeting were read by the secretary. The front page of the Negro World was read by Mr. Nathaniel Lewis. Our president then came before us. He delivered a soul stirring address. He spoke from this subject (The Words of. Napoleon Bonaparte) "Advance and Conquer." First, the mountains and the snow, then the plains and the enemies. Some of the thoughts that we gleaned from this subject were these: Great men have always met oppositions. When the. Hon. Marcus Garvey pulled the cover from the eyes of his people, he was arrested and placed in jail. He also gave us many other thoughts. This address will long be remembered by all that heard him.
We are expecting a larger audience out on next Sunday to hear our president. We can always expect something good from him.
The meeting was closed by the singing of the National Anthem. LILLIE MAE GOLDEN.

At 8:30 p.m. the meeting was called to order when Mr. Richard A. Perrin, chaplain, conducted the spiritual part. The meeting was then turned over to the president, Mr. Westmore Chance, who, after a few remarks and the singing of "God of the Right," by the congregation, introduced Miss Doris Judah to the chair.

On Sunday, June 2, the Canton Division held its regular mass meeting in its usual way.
The meeting was called to order by the first vice-president, Mr. J.S. Scott, who turned the meeting over to the Chapainn, Rev. G. Brokenbourgh. He proceeded with singing the opening ode, "From Greenland's Jay Mountains," and prayer, "Not by Power Nor by Might." The Twenty-third Psalm was repeated by the members.

On Sunday night, May 11, the Puerto Castilla Division, celebrated its regular mass meeting, commencing at 8 o'clock. Our hall was packed even to standing capacity with members, and earnest seckers and well-wishers of the organization.
The chair was occupied by our "brand new president," Mr. C. M. Morrison, when the professional march, "Shime On Eternal Light," was sung, after which the opening ode was rendered, followed by prayers of the president.
Hymn No. 3 was sung and the preamble was read by the presiding gentleman. Reading of scripture lesson and ritualistic ceremonies. Hymn No. 4 was sung, followed by institution of officers, when Mr. M. B. Daval acted as master of ceremonies. After the singing of Hymn-No. 7, the newly installed president favored the audience with a noble address, and rendering his vote for thanks for the position he now fills.
Ap. introductory address was given by pur financial secretary, Mr. Jones, when Dr. Procopia Bonilla was placed in standing position before a large audience. I would smile to say that Dr. Bonilla's tongue must have been pricked by the point of a diamond. He made a soul stirring address while we all drank from the foundation of imagination. We care to have such a long speaker on the rostrum again. We are proud to say that Mr. Scott of Virginia, Opa, is never forgetting the book in this grand more. You are on the stage gone. "The old man formerly known 'Dear trust.'"

The meeting was brought to a close by singing the National Anthem.
On May 6, the Madison Division held a mass meeting at 7:30 P. M. at Chum Hall, 521 Srd. street. Even before the officers, had arrived there were some friends and interested members waiting in the hall for the opening of the meeting.
The Hon. G. W. Hampton, president, called the meeting to order by the singing of "From Greenland's Icy Mountains."
After the prayers were said we sang the hymn after which the president read the front page of The Negro World. The president introduced the Hon. W. A. Wellace, who spoke for one hour to the largest gathering in the history of Madison Division. It seemed that those who were present had fastened their minds on him. Not one person left the hall earlier than 11:40 P. M. Among the other speakers were the Rev. G. Bruel of Love Joy, Ill., a man of power: a man of wisdom.
The last speaker, but not least in person, Dr. Earl Williams of Love Joy, Ill., a noted man. Dr. Williams offered his sagepie to our division to come out, himself and wife, and assist in training the Black Cross Nurses. The Rev. G. Brutel and Dr. Earl Williams also joined with other new members.
The Madison Division has taken on new life. After the meeting closed a free dinner was served and everybody was made happy. G. W. Hampton, president.
On Saturday, May 4th, the Remedies Division celebrated its yearly election.
This election is an epocalyptic one as it marks the era when our constitution has been approved by the provincial government and our working has become legalized as a division.
The election served partly in choosing the men and women who shall guide the destiny of the division for the current year, and partly for the legal constitution of our division in this city under the laws of the country.
After nine years of strenuous labor, punctuated with difficulties, set backs, combined with destructive propaganda, from within and without, the Remédios Division has weathered the storm, and with the direction of our captain, the Hon. Marcus Garvey, we shall land our ship safely in the harbor of success. This is evident, judging from the manner in which our people are coming to the support of the division.
At 8 P. M. the ceremony started, Mr. Granville Mitchell occupying the chair. Under his supervision the following officers were elected: Mr. George H. S. Reid, president; Mr. Albert Beat, vice-president; Sr. Tomas Hernander, second vice-president; Mrs. Betzy Foster, lady president; Mrs. Dorcas Blissett, first lady vice-president; Mr. Lester B. Shaw, general secretary; Sr. Hombono Sanchez, assistant secretary; Mr. Zacha

riah Grant, treasurer; Mr. Solomon Clark, chaplain. The ceremony closed at 11:30 P. M., after which a party was staged.
On Sunday, May 5th, being Garvey Day, a very fine mass, meeting was held.
The hall was crowded to its capacity and enthusiasm, was, at its height. Mr. S. G. Clark, newly elected chaplain, took charge of the religious part of the meeting, while Mr. A. Best, first: vice-president, occupied the chair.
Speakers for the occasion were Mrs. D. Blissett, first lady vice-president; Sr. Homobono Sanchez, assistant secretary, who addressed the Spanish-speaking people, and read the president-General's message in the Spanish-section of the Negro World of April 27th; Mr. E., S. Reid, who also read to the people the history of General Maceo, published in said issue of the Negro World; Mr. T. Hylton, a member of the division; Mr. S. G. Clark, chaplain; and Mr. Geo. H. S. Reid, president, made the announcements. Among the renditions was a very fine solo by Mrs. L. Duncan, entitled, "Flight for the Right," "God Bless Our President," and "O Africa Awaken," were also sung. At the singing of the latter the offering was raised.
A very pleasant meeting was brought to its close with the singing of the Ephigonian Anthem.
Enthusiasm run high at the regular-Sunday meeting of Charleston Division S14. Attendance was good and several new members were enrolled. Col. Joe Jackson, State Commander of the Colored American Legion spoke on "Garveyism and the Now Religion." He explained the importance of upholding race consciousness; closing with the admonition "Be not divided and victory is ours." At the conclusion of his address, Col. Jackson introduced Mr. R. W. Tompkins, a brilliant young attorney of Washington, D. C., who aroused the audience to a fever pitch of enthusiasm with the theme of "Garvey the Organizer."
Mr. Tompkins illustrated that whereas most Negro leaders were profoundly obligated to their white
friends for their success; Garvey has triumphed in spite of white opposition. Pointing out that the whites have advanced through the spirit of pioneering; he concluded with the ringing challenge: Let us go back to the soil from whence our fathers came, and carve for our posterity a nation that will be an enduring monument to the pioneers of Garveyism.

One of the many points made by the speaker was that as the biggie stirreth her nest so as to make it uncomfortable for the young eagles when at a certain age, the powers that be, have starred the nest of the Negro the world over so much so that the Negro cannot find first anywhere he goes. in foreign lands; therefore, he is constantly on the go from south to north, and from east to west, and yet unable to find that rest for which he has long prayed in agony and palms. God, through Marcus Garvey, has found but the one place in all the world, and that place is his Mother-land, Africa.
This brought applause from all assembled. Mr. Wheat left the city with everyone looking forward to his early return.

"WAKE UP NEGROES!"
THIS is the warning cry of Fate to the people of our race, in this Twentieth Century day, when all the world seems stirred with an unseen, irresistible force.
Years ago, when the present King of England, George the Fifth, was Prince of Wales, he was sent on a tour of the British Dominions. On his return to England he, in one of his many public appearances, met a large number of representative Englishmen at the Guildhall in London. Many fine and pleasant things were said on that memorable occasion, but the gist of his address was contained in just three words, "Wake up England."
The warning words of that address touched responsive chords in the hearts of millions of other Englishmen besides the few thousands who were gathered in that historic hall. And England woke up. Now, Fate is calling to the Negro Peoples of the World, urging them to bestir themselves, for they have reached the place where they must prove their manhood; where they must justify their creation at the hands of Nature's God; where they must prove God's wisdom in treating them.
We have heard the warning cry of Fate; and standing beneath the canopy of heaven today, we lift our hands to high heaven, and declare that no man no nation, no power, tangible or intangible, no force of whatever kind, to matter, shall ever keep us from justifying the works of God in creating us, and placing us here among the others of the sons of men. Fate has sounded her warning cry. We have resolved to heed that cry. More, we shall get right down to the issues at hand, and create businesses; and build enterprises and establish resources for the financing of our plans, for the providing of the sinnes that shall make our dreams come true:
This is no time for mere generalities. There is no longer any place for fine oratory, and for pleasant words and honeyed phrases on paper. If the Negroes are worth living; if the Negroes are worthy of the same consideration bestowed upon others of the human race, we must demonstrate our fitness in unmistakable fashion.
Let us now in the light of the opening days of the Twentieth Century get right down to the solid foundation without which no race can long survive. Let us begin to do for ourselves the things we have been longing to do; the things we have desired to bring to pass. For now—the hour of opportunity is here.
Our training in the schools and colleges, in the field, and in the factory must be utilized for the enhancement of the cause of the race. We must pool our resources, realizing in so doing that in unity there is strength. We must forget national boundaries, or sectional barriers. We must philaterate the narrow differences which have kept a divided and down-trodden race. There must be no more a cry of oppression from the ranks of Negroes. We must banish oppression by our might and muscle; and by every force which we can marshal. We must so bear ourselves that mankind everywhere will be bound to realize that the Negro is in a fighting mood; and that neither life, nor death, nor length nor, breadth, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor anything shall separate us from the cause which we have set out to carry to a successful conclusion.
We must never let the vision of all round Negro independence fail from before our mental and our physical eyes. We must ever hear the warning cry of Fate calling to us and saying, "Wake Up Negroes." Let the echo go down with us down the ages, so that in case we are killed to sleep, we shall be awakened to face the issues of the days as they come and go.
We must therefore begin Today, to rear such monuments to Negro enterprise that shall be worthy of a race whose ancestors first taught mankind how to trade, and how to live. Let us rear monuments worthy of our great ancestors, so that the present generation of mankind may experience a thrill hitherto unknown. There are vast opportunities open to Negroes today. These opportunities must be used for the building of our own enterprises. No better circumstances could have enveloped us than the squeezing out of some of our number, from the places they occupied, places that had been provided by the men of other races. We must realize that we have been carried along for quite awhile; and now we must rise and stand up on our own legs.
We shall need all our strength. We shall need all our courage, our wisdom, strategy, sagacity, and foresight. We shall need to draw out the best and the noblest in our souls, and to give out to the world such expressions of true manliness and true achievement that we shall have won the respect and admiration of a waiting world.
Our is a glorious future if we will but realize that the present narra conventions are but the stepping stones to vast success in whatever line we choose to embark. Let nothing dull our hearing; and let Fate call all the harder, since we shall begin now to build and rear such lasting monuments to Negro common-sense, Negro activity, and Negro achievement that will rejoice the hearts of the very gods.
"WHITHER BOUND?"
MID all the distractions of this work-a-day world; 'mid all the terrors which beset the pathway, notwithstanding the seeming disregard of the things which are real and vital, the things which do matter, and will stand the test of the judgment of our fellows in this world, the Voice of Inspiration speaks to the dark-skinned sons and daughters of Ham, and asks, "Whitner Bound."
There are millions of us who go on from day to day, utterly unfulfilled of the fate that awaits us if we refuse to shoulder the burdens which must fall to the lot of men who would heroes be; men who would grow out a destiny of their own, and rescue their race from the depths of despairment, and place it on solid foundations.
The time has come however, when we ought to begin to take our place seriously. The hour is here when the Negro Peoples of the world must realize that they are face to face with a great opportunity, to prove themselves according as they will decide to make it for them, by making them in the spirit of the universal language.
this issue of hope, like Awakening, is that people are ordered to make the change, opened their regalia. Self-story tells fall. We must think that point in our existence as a race and people when we must face the world, its people and its problems, and tell them that we are here to triumph over them, learn of and understand that we are destined to the war of the uncontainable and purpose of our lives. It happened if the hour of Fate struck. The day that we here. We must rise up now, and prepare ourselves, and prepare our forces, moral, spiritual, physical, financial, political, industrial, commercial and religious, for the striking of that new for New England, that shall through all the ages of time into the institution, for good or ill, that the man of the other race will be convinced that the Negro is no longer in a mood to be trivialized, but that having come into a realization of the God-given powers within him, he has set out to the development of his race in the way best suited to the uplift of his race, and the advancement of humanity.
We have come to the place in life when we cannot turn back with any credit to ourselves. We have set our faces forward, to the dawning of a new and more glorious day than the world has ever known before. We have pledged our lives, our fortunes, small though they be, and our sacred honor for the freeing ourselves and our children's children from any form of thrdalm which the mind of man can conceive. We have told the world that henceforth it is going to be "Liberty or death". We have been saying all these years that "title Negro is a man"; and now it is up to us to prove it, without equivocation, before the gaze of a waiting world. There must be no faltering. This is no time for cowards and cringing men. What Africa is demanding of her sons is that they will develop stern souls, that will not flinch in the face of death; souls that will not swerve from the path of rectitude and right; souls that will not give way before all the hosts of hell; souls that will stand before the petty tyrants of this life, and drive the conviction into the innermost recesses of their being that the Negro has arrived; and having arrived, he is prepared to carve out his own destiny, in his own appointed way.
We have come face to face with a situation when we must cut away from the apron strings of other men and races, and mould our own environments, and shape our own future, direct our own course.
Because of this situation which faces us, we Negroes are called upon to regard the present situation as the greatest opportunity that has ever come to any people; and begin at once to lay the foundation for a greater future, than mankind has ever known before. This is no mere idle, sentimental talk. We have what it requires to build a great future; nay more, a glorious future. We must use up our latent resources. We must get into the industries and into the lines of commercial enterprise. Prove our mettle, prove our fitness to life, prove to the world and its Creator that they have no need; to be ashamed of the people of the Negro race. In short we must begin to acquit ourselves in the various lines of human endeavor that in the days that are ahead we will not have to be dependent upon the meries of the men of other races for our existence.
We have talked a great deal. We have written a great deal more. We have desired a great deal. The fact that we have expressed these desires is also proof sufficient that we can make these righteous desires come true if we will but acquit ourselves like men; and buckle down to the tasks before us. And while inducing the people of this race of ours to buckle down to the tasks at hand we want to realize that it is not necessary for us to roam the earth in search of opportunity. Opportunity is right where we are, waiting to be used; waiting to serve our ends and purposes; waiting to stamp our impress upon the world in this day and generation; waiting to be utilized for the healing of the nation and the glory of God.
Rouse Negroes! Let us meet the challenge of the century like men, true-hearted and sincere: Let us gird our loins for the fray. Other men, in all ages have struggled, and fought, and died, that their race might live. And how can Negroes die better, than fighting fearful odds; for the ashes of their fathers, and the temples of their Gods.
The Voice of Destiny is calling to us and saying "Whither Bound?" Are we going to give an answer that history will record to our credit, or are we going to answer like foul craves, afraid to venture out on the sea of life for ourselves; afraid to tackle the task of shaping our own destinies? Let the future show it. Yes, but let us. Now—Today, face the issue squarely: tell humanity and humanity's God, that henceforth it is going to be forward, to Victory, or to death." And having registered that vow, let us move forward from this decisive moment to the realization of our dreams, and the glory of Ethiopia.

Literary Society of East Brooklyn Chapter to Hold Meeting July 11
All roads will lead to the hall of the East Brooklyn Chapter of the U, N. I. A., on Thursday evening next, July 11th, when there will take place a meeting of the Literary Society of the chapter, under the direction of Mr. Geo. Hewttt. The meeting will open at 8:30 P. M.
This is expected to be a very interesting meeting, and a large attendance of friends and members is expected. Among the speakers will be Mr. R. T. Brown of the Negro World, and Mr. Arden Brown.
Mr. Arden Bryan, who is the author of "Foreign Affairs" will be the principal speaker for the occasion, and friends and members are assured of an evening of inspiration and interest. Be on time.
Speaking of social equality, we are reminded that Mrs. De Priest would more likely be the social equal of the first lady of the land than some of those Mississippi gentlemen's wives, if one is to judge their choice of a help-mate by the same measure of intelligence they have shown in regard to the recent White House episode.

We like to hand out compliments to people who marit them; especially when those compliments are earned by men and women of our faith, who have toiled and striven faithfully, in upholding the honor of freedom, and enhancing the cause of "Africa for the African." We take this opportunity to send a bouquet to our friend and brother Mr. William Jenkins of 47 Kukush street, Houseside, N.

There is no doubt about the fact that Negroes will stick together. We need some men to sell the Negro to himself and then to the world. If we can be led to believe that we ought to have a car on a salary of $10 a week, we can be led to stick together comfortably. Big business presses its markets by skillful appeal to all types of men in all kinds of ways. We, too, can create pride by race using the adhesive of widespread advertising of the true nature of our condition and the logical remedy—The Enterprise (Seattle, Wash.).

To the Editor of the Negro World:
In another few days every Negro community throughout the world will be busy engaged in the preparation of sending its delegate to the Sixth International Convention of Negroes in the cities, the auspices of the U. N. I. A.
Every one should be keenly interested in the forthcoming conclave because it is to mark a turning point, the introduction of a new era in the events of the Y. N. I. A.
In 1920 everyone animated by the spirit of the World War was eager for display and pageantry, nationalism was afame throughout the world; moreover, the spoils-of the war were being apportioned without consideration of the Negro and, besides, to be a member of a convention of Negroes from the four corners of the earth—the first of its kind—was a marked distinction. So we found assembled a majority of enthusiasts and a minority of sincerely workers. Notwithstanding the finished products of the convention were masterpieces, namely, the Bill of Rights which was studied by all nations, the launching of a Steamship Company, and the program for arousing the Negro to nationalism.
The Convention of 1920 laid a broad foundation upon which the builders have been, working assiduously during the past nine years. During this time numerous obstacles were met, greatly handicapping the progress of the workers. With these years of experience the approaching convention is to, inaugurate a new era.
Time has shifted the enthusiasts and today we find a group of ardent workers which, though small, is deeply interested in the program of the association and eager for its progress. Many who attended the first convention were ill-trained to carry on such gigantic programs, especially the D.N.I.A. Some of the ardent workers, too, were listed in this class, but they quickly sensed the weight of the task and the responsibility demanded and have been preparing themselves for the coming occasion.
Who can study the program for discussion without perceiving the seriousness of the calling? Each number indicates the tense efforts and earnestness of the proponents in their attempt to attain for the race a higher standard than is now enjoyed. It is hoped that overy delegate who attends the convention will be prepared to discuss this program with no less seriousness, than its makers, and thus help to formulate plans that will draw us nearer our ultimate aim.
Finally, many former active members who have wandered away, and many former opponents who through public speaking were reluctant in joining the association, and who have since learned its objects and aims, are eagerly awaiting the outcome of the convention to align themselves with the association. The forthcoming assembly has the important task of presenting a program that will induce these men to enter the fold.
Yours truly,
CUTHEN E. HOLDER
It is with much interest that I read Mrs. Stephenson's Article of June, 1st in the Negro World.
She said that we must drag out the traitors of our race, and expose them to the masses whom they have misled and deceived.
Let all members of the U. N. I. A. say amen. If a member is unable to say amen to what Mrs. Stephenson has said, that member is a crook. Stadding, sitting, lying or swimming.

Garvey said Mr. Garvey does not belong to me alone, but to all the Negroes of the world. Mr. Garvey in his broad statement meant to my that there is no respect of person with him. When it comes to this program of racial uplift, all Negroes look the same to him as we march on to our goal, Africa.
Representatives of the Hon. Marcos Garvey in the various bodies: Have you any near friends? Are you covering your crooked friends, thus allowing them to discourage the members? Are you using the book of law that governs this organization upon them? Of what use is the constitution without its execution?
I feel that the time has come for floor members, with the Constitution as our, foundation. Fight down men and women in office who fail to take precautionary steps, and who have refused to profit by the mistakes and failures of men once prominent amongst us.

To the Editor of the Negro World: Dear Sir:
I beg to return many thanks for the stories appearing in the Negro World of some of the greatest minds of our race that ever lived, such as Gen. Antonio Maceo, one of the Liberators of Cuba, Toussaint L'Ouverture, Liberator of Haiti, Cetaway, Monarch of Zululand, who fought the English and French with such bravery that caused the whole world to admire him.
These stories are lessons teaching us that what has been done can be done again, for the "will finds" out the way."
I beg to say, Mr. Editor, that by promulgating these stories, I find in them one of the race's truly great achievements in the art of marshalling our entire race to an impending conflict. I think a continuance of these stories would do, good to our race and not harm, for by reading these stories, we find that in ourselves we were sleeping giants; but waking now and putting on our complete armor to resist the wrongs that are healed upon us.
Little do you know how we appreciate these stories. We find that these men were not selfish men, who lived only for themselves, nor men who saw today, and want to reap tomorrow; but they were men who sow for the entire race, and these are immortal names that can never die.
Lives of great men all remind us
We can make our lives sublime;
And departing leave behind us.

There has been to my estimation much signs of improvement in The Negro World, your paper. I. therefore, congratulate you and your staff on this good of nation-hood. May "Excelsior" ever be your watchword.
Renders of The Negro World will observe; That our paper is precious, comprehensive, invaluable. Secondly, instructive, historical. Lastly, the voice of the awakened Negro and the medium by which the new Negro can be better known and thought of, socially, morally, spiritually, physically, politically and financially.
As an old and ardent worker in this Great Cause, it behooves us continuously to buy, read, learn, mark and inwardly digest its teachings.
Thanks for space. Mr. Editor.

Department of Foreign Affairs is pleased to release for your educational information the following governmental document between the United States of America and His Ethiopia Majesty the Emperor of Morocco, done at the office of Morocco in the year of our Lord
Peace and Friendship in the Name of
Almighty God
This is a treaty of peace and friendship established between us and the U. S. of A. which is confirmed, and which we have ordered to be written and sealed with our royal-seal, at our court of Morocco, on the 25th day of the blessed month of Shahan in the year 1260, trusting in God it will remain permanent.
ARTICLE I
We declare that both parties have agreed that this treaty, consisting of twenty-five articles, shall be inserted in this book, and delivered to the Hon. Thomas Barclay, the agent of the United States now at court with whose approbation it has been made and who is duly authorised on their part to treat with us concerning all the matters contained therein.
ARTICLE II
If either of the Parties shall be at war with any nation, whatever, the other Party shall not take a commission from the enemy, nor fight under their colors.
Yet American aerialators in American aeroplanes were allowed, to take part against Abdel. Krim in alding to rob Morocco of his treedown.
ARTICLE III
If either of the Parties shall be at war, with any nation whatever, and take a prize belonging to that nation, and there shall be found on board subjects or effects belonging to either of the Parties, the subjects shall be set at liberty and the effects returned to the owners. And if any goods belonging to any nation, with whom either of the Parties shall be at war, shall be loaded on vessels belonging to the other Party, they shall pass free and unmolested, without any attempt being made, to take or detain them.
ARTICLE IV
A signal or pass shall be given to all vessels belonging to. both Parties, by which they are to be known when they meet at sea and if the commander of a ship of war of either Party shall have other ships under his convoy, the declaration of the commander shall alone be sufficient to exempt any of them from examination.
Yet we are told, that Europe has gone to Africa to civilize us.
ARTICLE V
If either of the Parties shall be at war, and shall meet a vessel at sea belonging to the other, it is agreed, that if an examination is to be made, it shall be done by sending a boat with two or three men only, and if any gun shall be fired, and injury done without reason, the offending Party shall make good all damages.
ARTICLE VI
If any Afric subject shall bring citizens of the United States, or their effects, to His Majesty, the citizens shall immediately be set at liberty and the effects restored, and in like manner vice versa.
Yet, we were brought here; even from there as late as 1838, and held against our will in slavery.
ARTICLE VII
If any vessel of either Party shall put into the port of the other, and have occasion for provisions or other supplies, they shall be furnished without any molestation or interruption, whatever.
ARTICLE VIII
If any vessel of the United States shall meet with a disaster at sea, and put into one of our Ports to repair, she shall be at liberty to land and re-load her cargo, without paying any duty whatever.
Yet the malefactors, in white pulpits, the newspapers and the screen, make out us to be sectionally and continentally inferior and incapable of such an understanding.

The famous team's next venture was a trip abroad in a specialty which also failed to meet expectations. Williams raised his hand upon returning to Americas and said, "Never no nee," in his famous stage debut. Success seemed difficult to attain at first.

TORONTO, June 24.—Kid Chocolate, sensational Cuban bantam-weight contender, added to his long list of straight victories, when he scored a one-round knockout verdict over Jackie Johnston, of Toronto, in their scheduled 10-round fight here last Monday night. The bout was staged in the Maple Leaf Stadium and marked Chocolate's Canadian debut.
The flashy, smiling, Cuban had little trouble in smashing his way to victory over Johnston. The Canadian bantam, was no match for the dark-skinned battler and was sent to the canvass shortly after the sound of the gong in the opening session.
Baby Joe Gans of California went out to Dexter Park Arena last Wednesday evening. He had a date with Harry Wallich. It seefs as though there was a little argument started between them sometime ago. They promised to meet, but Gans went off and got sick. So the date was set back. Funny about those fellows, when they have an argument to settle, they settle it. No over-looking the matter for them. No sneeze. Anyway they stepped in the ring last Wednesday and Gans said, "Well I am here, Mr. Wallach, sorry. I had to disappoint you last time; but we will settle this little matter for keeps tonight. So said, so done. Gans gave him a boxing lesson for ten rounds and received the referees decision.
(1) The Political and Social Freedom of the entire Negro Race. (3) The establishing of a d in several large cities of the world
(73) The establishing of a daily paper in several large cities of the world to shape sentiment in favor of the entire Negro race, namely, in London, Paris, Berlin, Capetown, New York, Washington, Gold Coast, West Africa, and the several important islands of the West Indies.
Information has come to us that Kid Chocolate is training at Orangesburg, New York, for his coming ten round contest. Wednesday evening, July 10th, with Ignacio Fernandez at Ebbets Field in Brooklyn.
(2) The presentation of proper evidence before the League of Nations for an adjustment of the International Race Problem.
(3) The creating of a thorough educational system for the higher education of the Negroes of America, the West Indies and Africa, resulting in the founding of three Negro universities of a purely technical character—one in America, one in the West Indies and one in Africa.
(9) The practical effort of uniting every unit of the Negro race throughout the world into one organized body.
The kid must take this light seriously. Anyway Fernandez is no slouch. He has some good fight to his credit, and I know as well as you do, that if he can the Kid, he will have accomplished a feat that none other has up to date. A decision over Chocolate would place him right on top; and, in the biggest of fighting time. The offers he would get would be just too bad. His greatest trouble would be avoiding promoters.
(10) The formulating of plans to unify the religious beliefs and practices of the entire Negro race.
(4) The creating of general economic opportunities in agriculture, industry and commerce for the Negro peoples of the world, whereby a brisk and proper trade relationship may develop between the Negroes of. America, Africa, the West Indies and South and Central America to insure a stable economic status.
(11) The establishing of a universal social code for the Negro race.
(12) To make practical and execute each and every one of the above objects within ten years as a solution of the Negro problem, and as a means of saving the Negro race from further exploitation and possible extermination in the world.
But, say fellows, no need for worry, because, you can take it from me, the Kid will smother this guy Ignacio with Chocolate bomb bombs, that will leave him in quite a bad way.
(5) The acquiring and controlling of agricultural lands for the scientific development of agriculture and also the establishment of factories and industrial institutions in various Negro communities to guarantee permanent employment to the Negroes of America, Africa, the West Indies, and South and Central America, Europe and Canada.
I predict that the Kid will win this one by a knockout before the eighth round.
(13) To budget for the expenditure of a fund of six hundred million dollars in ten years to execute the above program as shall be determined by the convention.
Just received from Humbert Fugazay, promoter, at the Ebbets Field that he intends to pit the winner of this fight against Andre Routis for the championship the early part of August. Go to it Chocolate this is your great moment. Hope you do not pass it up. If you do it will be a long time coming around again.
(14) To elect the international officials of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League of the World.
(6) The launching of a new line of steamships—The Black Star Line—to facilitate Negro trade and commerce throughout the world.
(15) To elect twelve delegates from the convention to attend the tenth session of the League of Nations at Geneva, Switzerland.
DON'T BET ON FIGHTS.
Al Brown, bantonweight champion of the world, won a ten round decision over Vic Burrone last Wednesday evening over at Dreamland Park. His title was not at stake. Just one of show tune up fights that a fighter likes to put under his belt pending a real test. fight, which Brown expects to come up soon.
(7) To establish in London, Washington, Paris, Berlin, Rome, Brussels, Geneva, Tokyo, China, India, West Africa, South Africa, embassies to represent the interest of the entire Negro race and to watch and protect their rights.
(16) To take up all and such matters as affect the interest of the Negro race.
(17) To discuss and amend the Constitution of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and A. C. L.

Say boys do you recall that I stated in this column a couple of weeks back that most of the sports writers on the daily papers put too much self into their articles for public consumption and what makes it doubly bad, is when they are allied with prejudice of the rudest kind and appear to be Negro natives and would step in to prevent any Negro from relentlessly interruption or getting a break. This is most of the time page for yourself.
Whatever women power told this person, he will tell over all things the same, and may even be said a thing more and more as he goes by years.
lines of one, Harry Grayson, one of the sports feature writers on the New York Telegram. Under the data line of July 3rd, "That Max Schmeling is young and strong and would be an odds-on favorite over any heavyweight save George Godfrey, whom he will never have to meet." Now boys don't get sore on this poor little minded man. He does not mean much in a big city like New York. Here is another passenger for the southern limited. Anyway he probably will be made to swallow those words because if Schmeling gets by Sharkey, Godfrey will place a challenge with the boxing commission that will create action.
The thrill seems to have departed from the yearly fixture. All Barbados against the rest. The reason is that there is no competition. There are—not eleven cricketers in the length and breadth of the land that can even extend an All Barbados ensemble. Barbados has been the crudel of star cricketers as far back as our memory runs. Over there they have reigned supreme; though in recent years the opposition has strengthened. The other islands are after Barbados' scalp.
Over here, the All Barbados combles wins with such ridiculous ease, it is hardly worth chronicling. "When we have a truly worthy foe, to test our mettle?" is a question the local Barbadian would like answered.
The only solution it seems is the wholesale importation of the cricetist luminaries of Trinidad, Jamaica and islands of a like strength.
At. Commercial Field lost Thursday and Sunday, All Barbados, playing against the pick of Leeward, Windward and Bermuda Islands, smothered the opposition with some 230 odd runs for their first innings. The combine replied with 137. Reggie Aldler was the batting ace of the day, compiling 90 odd. Henry Hunt, the West Indian C. C. trunier, representing Barbados, raised havee with the stumps of the batmen that faced him. He secured 4 wickets for 32. Allan Hayers gibly assisted with the leather.
The Sunday continuation was such a drab affair that your correspondent left before it was over, being satisfied that he had lost a perfectly good Sunday afternoon.

Race striving against race. Brother against brother.
Forgetting our lot is linked . . . one with the other.

"Lift Up the Standard!" By R. T. BROWN
Is there a God who sits on high
Enthroned among the just?
And will his great All-Seeing Eye
Close, and our cause be lost?
No! never while the ages run,
Shall Africa's cause be lost.
We're blessed with vigor from His
sun,
We'll smash the tyrant's host.
Our Africa shall yet be free;
For so hath God decreed.
Break, break the bonds of Italy,—
Of French and British greed.
And Portugal, and cruel Spain,
And Belgium shall be.
In Africa's regions never again,—
Our homeland shall be free.
Then let us lift the standard high,
And march to victory.
And let us fight beneath God's sky,
Till Africa is free.

The five-year-old daughter of the house was delegated to show the distinguished guest up to wash his hands. Opening the door of the bathroom, which was only fitted out with the best embroidered linens in honor of the occasion, Sally said: "Just make yourself at home and," with a royal gesture, "you may use any of the towels."—Indianaapolis News.

Local Cricket
By D. L. L.
Our Dumb Cricket Promoters Are a Handicap to Sport
It is positively staggering, the inadequacy of our cricket sport promoters to properly handle, stage games. They cry about the lack of support on the part of the fans, but they have no one to blame but their own dumbbells. Words cannot be too strong. It is only by wielding a trenchant pen that we can obtain results.
Every year, some big attraction is staged. The players are not paid. They perform, FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE GENTLEMEN STAGING THE GAME. What is their reward? They are charged admission themselves to enter the grounds; when not participating; after giving their services gratis!
We cannot condone such conduct on the part of the promoters. Their greedy, rapacious appetite after the hard-earned dollar of even the players, must naturally have its aftermath.
The promoters emerald high sounding phrases: Money is not what we're after; advancement of the sport"—such jolly nonsense. These men are in it for all they can get out of it. They do not get enough because they do not know how to handle big affairs.
Foreign teams invade our shores. Thousands of dollars are involved. It could be made a national attraction; yet, our wise promoters do not devote an inch of advertisement to the Negroes.
They profess staggering losses, which is the basest of lies. They do not lose, but they fall to get all that is coming, to them. They can blame no one but themselves. Big attractions cannot be made to render satisfactory dividends, by the cheap method of handing out hand circulars to the passerby.
This system may be all right in the islands; but, in this man's town, we handle big things in a big way. The white press may run an account of the game, but we do not get the patronage of the white people. Hardly a dozen show up at the matches.
The promoters disclaim the power of the press, but you won't run across one successful white business man that will lend an ear to such folly. They know better. It is remarkable: the dumbness of our black cricket promoters.
As the inspired pen of J. G. Holland and so aptly puts it:
"God give us men. The time demands Strong minds, great hearts, true
"God give us men. The time demands Strong minds, great heartz, true faith and willing hands;
Men whom the lust of office does not kill;
Men-whom the spoils of office cannot buy;
Men who possess opinions and a will;
Men who have honor; men who will not lie;
Men who can stand before a demagogue;
And damn his treacherous fatteries without winking;
Tall men, sun-crowned, who live above the fog
In public duty and in private thinking!
For while the rabble with their thumb worn creeds,
Their large professions and their little deeds
Mingle in selfish strife; lo! Freedom weeps!
Wrong rules the land, and waiting Justice sleeps!
NEAR ENOUGH TO BITE YOU
"You can find the best paying gold mine in the world if you go after it hard enough," says Forbes Magazine. "It is just above your neck."

Discusión y enmiendas a la constitución de la Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negr y Liga de Comunidades Africanas.
Vivimos indudablemente en una era de reorganización mundial, de la cual resultará un determinado programa para los pueblos organizados, que no admitirán ninguna simpatía en fos asuntos humanos, siendo este el motivo de estarnos preparando para la gigante lucha de sobrevivir al grupo, más acondicionado.
Nos aproximamos gradualmente al punto donde el negro concientemente y por mediación de su-propia organización ha de marchar hacia adelante, a la meta de sus aspiraciones o permanecer inerte y ver por sus propios ojos como se le fuerza hacia la pira de la esclavitud económica, para ser finalmente oprimido por los cilindros demoledores de la explotación y exterminado por la mano de hierro. del prejuicio que se tiene contra su raza.
La lucha por la redención de Africa no significa que abandonemos nuestras luchas domésticas por el derecho y por la justicia. Mucho menos significa el que seamos desleales a cualquier gobierno en donde estemos establecidos. Todas y cada una de las razas aparte de su lealtad doméstico nacional,, se deben a una lealtad para consigo misma. Es razonable, por consiguiente, el que el negro se manifieste interesado en su propio destino racial, defendiendo su derecho industrial social y político.
Dia De Veneracion
El primero de julio celebró Haiti el Día de la Madre, que se convirto en uno de veneración a Desalines, cuando, contestando a un llamamiento de "Le Nouvelliste", los haitianos colocaron coronas de flores en la base de la estatua del héroe nacional profanada por vandalos desconocidos.
El luchar por el establecimiento de Palestina no hace que el judio americano sea desleal; el luchar por la independencia de Irlanda tampoco convierte al irlandés en mal ciudadano. La Asociación Universal para el Adelanto de la Raza Negra patrocina la lealtad hacia todos los gobiernoos; más cuando se llega al punto en cuanto al Africa concierne, opinamos que el negro tiene otra obligación para consigo mismo.
Casi todos los haitianos concurren en la opinión de que ningun marino ni civil nortamericano es culpable de tal acto, sino que es obra de la pequeña minoria de irreconciliables deseos de desacreditar al gobierno.
De la condición desnivelada en que se encuentra el mundo actualmente resurgiría una evolución tal, que cada raza sumisa en opresión tendrá la oportunidad de marchar hacia adelante. El último conflicto mundial dio la oportunidad a muchos pueblos oprimidos, -para que acquirieran su libertad: El próximo conflicto o evolución que haya de desarrollarse dará al Africa la oportunidad por tanto tiempo esperada. En el transcurso de algunos años tendremos un mundo cambiado políticamente, y Africa no será una de las mas atrasadas. Tal vez sea la mas grande de las comunidades que sostenga la antorcha de la civilización, esparciendo bendiciones de libertad y democracia sobre toda la humanidad.
Solamente un diario de la oposición, "Le Temps", denuncia que el hecho, fue cometido por personas conocidas por la policía, pero que ésta no intervendria.
"Le Nouvellete" denuncia el hecho como un insulto a la memoria de un héroe nacional querido de Haiti, como Pedro el Grande para Rusia. Vercingetorix para Francia y Washington para los Estados Unidos.
Tanto la prensa como el gobierno denuncian el acto como una obra criminal y cobarde que permitió a los ideales de la oposición ir tan lejos hasta conquer un sacrilegio contra un héroe sagrado.
Nuestro movimiento, de enaltecimiento fue el primero que advocó el nacionalismo para nuestro elemento. La perspectiva peculiar del negro en este hemisferio occidental, poniendo en poligro por su reciente practicismo de una condición de survidumbre y aliento por el hombre bianco, de manera que este pueda siempre retener su mano de acero con su dominación y opresión, es incomprensible para el resto de la raza negra la cual persigue toda oportunidad nacionalística, como objectivo principal para su felicidad. Es increible el que exista una raza que no aspire a su nacionalidad, la cual trae consigo prestigios políticos, económicos y sociales, y descarta para siempre la opresión, la descriminación, y el encono racial.
La policía no ha practicado arres-
tos, pero se está buscando la pista
de los profanadores probables.
La Industria Azucarera.
Debido a las grandes ganancias de las compañías domésticas productoras de azúcar durante el año de 1928 y con el objeto de aliviar de algún modo la tarifa de 3 centavos, los ciudadanos americanos productores de azúcar en Cuba, representados por el señor Edwin P. Shattuck se quejaron ante el coníte financiero del senado.
Universalmente el negro tiene una labor que realizar y un largo camino que recorrer, al inspirarle el anhelo fundamental de su nacionalidad. Nuestra orgnización es el armá de combate que mejor puede utilizar en la persecusión de tan glorioso objetivo. Ella durante sus diez años de existencia ha predicado dia por dia su evangelillo. Grandes han sido sus decepiones; espléndidos sus-triunfos; sus victorias vitales y gloriosas. Su impulso nos acercará mas y mas a la realización de nuestra aspirición—la nacionalidad de nuestro pueblo.
La industria domestica con excepción de Luísiana, después de depreciaciones y tasas, denuestra una ganacia de unos ocho y medio millones a 17 y medio millones de dólares; mientras las compañías en Cuba han sufrido pérdidas por más, de 9 millones de dólares.
Las estadísticas siguientes son del comité permanente de Relaciones en los Estados Unidos de la canara de Comercio Americana en Cuba, entidad que facilita estos datos.
Temas a Discutir En la Proxima Convención De Los Pueblos Negros Del Universo
Libertad política y social de la raza negra en general.
Presentación de evidencia a la Liga de Naciones en pos de un reajuste internacional en el problema racial.
Creación de un sistema eficiente para la educación del negro en el hemisferio occidental y en Africa, con la resultante de tres universidades técnicas—una en Norte America, una en las Antillas y la otra en Africa.
La producción continental de azúcar de remolacha en los Estados Unidos representa una producción de 725,883 tomeladas con una ganancia ríta de $8,541,667.
Creación de oportunidades en la agricultura, en la industria y en el comercio para los pueblos negros del universo, contribuyendo ello al desarrollo de relaciones entre los negros de América y de Africa, para asegurar el establecimiento de su status económico.
Adquisición de tiersas para el desartrollo científico de la agricultura, así como el establecimiento de fibricas e instrucciones industriales en varias comunidades de la tierra, con el objeto deprimir empleo permitente a nuestro afectuoso.

Dichas ganancias representan los ideales de la industria doméstica esto es de destitución y pobreza y el único alivio que dará la tarifa será la tasa sobre todo consumidor americano en un artículo tan indispensable.
Según un informe publicado recienteidente por la Oficina Federal de Educación, en la mayoría de los estados la educación física está bajo la dirección de un inspector especial, que es ayudado en las escuelas secundarias por sendidos profesores de educación física y en las elementales por los maestros.
Generalmente en las escuelas elementales se practica la educación física de tres a cinco veces por semana y en las escuelas secundarias de dos a tres veces por semana. Cada vez está siendo más reconocido el valor educativo de los boy secundos y está tratando de unir sus actividades al programa de educación física escolar.
La nutación es considerada como una parte importante del plan de estudios, y en algunas ciudades necesario saber nadar para poder graduarse en las escuelas secundarias. La higiene es considerada como una de las enseñanzas más importantes. En muchas escuelas las profesores de educación fisica dirigen los jugos deportivos. La mayoría de las escuelas elementales urbanas tienen campos de juego, pero un cincuenta por ciento de las escuelas secundarias carecen todavía de el. En general la educación fisica se considera en

A word to Editor—A number of editors, both white and colored, have written us expressing approval and their interest in the Weekly Economic Summary. We take this occasion to thank these friends for their encouraging comments. As an earnest of our appreciation, we pledge ourselves to spare neither expense nor energy to make these weekly summaries authentic and reliable. We hope thereby that they may be increasingly interesting.
Secretary and News Editor.
AGRICULTURE — Because, there are no cooperative agricultural organizations among Negroes, Charles E. Hall, Negro statistician in the CENSUS, BURKE, believes that Negro farms will not-share in the $500,000,000 revolving funds recently approved by Congress. According to the Hall 67 per cent of the white farmers own their farms as against 24 per cent among Negroes. This difference, he says, is due very largely to the fact that Negro farmers have not been able to share in the benefits of the Federal Farm Loan Act of 1916.
C. H. Waller, state leader of Negro Farm Demonstration work in Texas, reports that the erection of a number of pasteurization plants in that state has increased the interest of Negro farmers in dairying. In one such community, eleven Negro farmers purchased during the month a number of high-grade cows and bulls. These nearby plants afford a quick cash market for raw milk. In another Texas county Negro farmers are reported as receiving an average of $350 per acre for their tomatoes.
BUSINESS — Negro newspapers have long contended that the increasing purchasing power of the Negro entitled him to more consideration from national advertisers. It is encouraging to note that the University of Chicago Chancellor recently made an estimate of Negro purchases in a selected group of southern cities. Nine of these cities showed average annual purchases by Negroes amounting to $10,471,977. The Negroes, in these cities, represented an average of 36 per cent of the population and their purchases were 25 per cent of the total. Southern white daily papers are also taking notice of the Negro's buying power. In an editorial by MACON JOURNAL LEGRAH said, "It is true that the Negro's trade is solicited and that news-papers recognize an asset in his circitation."
For several weeks, the CHICAGO WHIP has been demanding that businesses enterprises located in Chicago's Southeast, which depend almost entirely upon Negro trade, should give employment to Negro clerks. The WHIP reports the week that twenty-five Negro men and women have been employed as a result of this agitation. The Peoples' Finance Company of Detroit has broken ground for a new building. The Town City Business and Civic Association of Minnesota is sponsoring a prize contest for most beautiful lawns and gardens in the Town Cities.
Cooperative merchandising is rapidly, spreading among Negro retailers. Tulsa merchants, organized an association lt week similar to ones already in operation in Montgomery, Alabama and Winston-Salem, North Carolina. The development of this effort among Negroes in commanding the thoughtful attention of Negro editors, Committing on cooperative merchandising. The CAPE FEAR (N.C.) JOURNAL says: "The sooner independent grocers get together on such a program, the sooner will their businesses be placed on a sounder economic foundation and the sooner will they be able to compete with chain competition." Negro grocers in the following cities are unit-

The Independent National Permanent Directory Association must last week in Philadelphia. Report of the Secretary's meeting that Negro undertakers are buying Negroes to a larger extent than ever before. Approximately 150,000 Negroes were buried during the last twelve months and white undertakers handled only 10 per cent of this business. Another development reported is the increasing business of casket and embbling fluid manufacturing by Negroes.
INDUSTRY- As an offset to the loss of dining car tools on the Northern Pacific, the Pennsylvania Railroad is displacing stewardies on some of their dining car beds and using instead an experienced Negro waiter who is known as the "Walter in charge." Commenting, the FITTIS COGNER says, "It is rumored that the waiter money through this new arrangement because the 'walter in charge' is not paid as much as the stewardes, were paid." Still, this is an opening, and we are glad to see it."
The report of unemployment issued by the UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF LABOR was, discussed elaborately, by the BIRMINGHAM (Ala.) NEWS. It said, "Unemployment is chiefly confined, according to the department, to unskilled workers. What to do about the unskilled worker must become increasingly boring as the years pass. With the opening of the automatic cranes and the dredges and the like instruments doing the work daily and economically the formerly was done by scores of workers. Finally have added enormously to the welfare of skilled workers, but have thrown out of employment the unskilled and the untrained." The same thought was expressed by the WASHINGTON (D. C.) TRIBUNE an it discussed Negro unemployment. The TRIBUNE said, "Jobs are fast slipping away from us. We are not keeping pace with the machine age."
Writing the story of Alabama in the July REVIEW OF REVIEWS, John Temple Graves 2nd, reports that there are in Alabama 300,000 white laborers and 400,000 Negro laborers. He says: "In the manufacturing industries white labor exceeds Negro in number by about three to two. In the mining and quarrying industries the Negro labor predominates by about four to three." The annual report of the Bureau of West Virginia and Statistics of West Virginia for the year 1928 has just released the report, shows that 22 per cent of the 19,118 miners in the state are Negro. "The future miner" says the report, "the labor, how to handle and operate labor saving machinery in the production of coal and its by-products." Negro labor is paid the same rate as whites for the same class of work. All interesting part of the report gives a comparison of home ownership among the West Virginia miners.
In a reference to wages of Negroes in the South MANIFACTURERS RECORD says "They (Negroes) are, however, a very important factor in the business life of the South as well as in the family life. They to a large extent jobs on the farm, on the railroad and on construction works. That there has been such an abundance of them is part responsible for the low wages paid ever since, slavery days and these low wages to the Negroes have held down salaries of the white men. Lift the Negro to a higher plane through higher wages and moral and physical cleanliness and you inevitably take from the backs of hundreds of thousand of whites the burden of low wages."
SIGNIFICANT SENTENCES. So much has been said about the "excessive criminality" among Negroes and its corresponding handi-cap to the race's advancement in industry, it is important to record here the words of Wade H. Ellis, a member of the Crime Commission of the American Bar Association, Mr. Ellis said in a radio address; in other words, while in every European country there is less innocence than there is in the United States, the chief contributors to incestuation in the United States are the incestrants from European countries.
In addressing the Virginia Bankers' Association at their annual meeting last week, E. H. B. Simons, President of the New York Stock Exchange said: "The day is rapidly passing when serious bankers or business men in this country will allow our national problems to be settled on the basis of prejudice or attive epithets, or mere rant and nonsense." It would be very reassuring if the economic problem of the Negro could be worked out on that basis.
House Once Declined to Seat South Carolina Congressman Joe. Rainey, But Reconsidered Case the Next Day
WASHINGTON.—The DePriest case to come before Congress Monday recalls how the U. E. House of Representatives refused for one day to seat Joseph H. Rainey, one of the twenty colored men who served in the lower house.
Mr. Rainey was elected to the forty-first Congress. The secretary of State of South Carolina, gave him a certificate of election, but before the convening of Congress this secretary died. J. S. Richardson, who contested the election of Rainey, presented a statement from the succeeding secretary of State and Governor Wade Hampton declaring that there were outrages, intimidation and fraud to such an extent as to render the result of the election exceedingly doubtful.
When Mr. Rainey presented himself, he was asked to stand aside. The next day a resolution was offered and passed that he be given the oath.
Victor Berger, white, convicted of violating the espionage act, was refused a seat in Congress in 1918 and again in 1919. Re-elected by his State a third time, Congress finally seated him.
Roberts Case
Erigham H. Roberts, white, was refused a seat by the 56th Congress, because he had been convicted of polygamy. Prior to these, every congressman-elect provided with a certificate of election had been immediately seated.
